In the last couple of days I've gotten two spams for the movie 300 that have been put in the comments of old entries. Has anyone else experienced that?
No, and I was unaware that spambots were able to leave comments in LiveJournal. That is really uncool! :( Only registered LiveJournal users can leave comments on my journal, and I wonder if allowing anonymous comments (especially unscreened) opens the gate to spam.
I had a spam for car insurance this last week, and some other thing a while back. Nothing for that movie. The car insurance thing was in my sadly only actual Arisia report (I fell down on the job there, but as I had a grand total of one real reply it's not as if people really cared what I thought) which I think had no reference to cars, but instead to a web comics panel. I'm not sure what logic the apam bots use to determine that a thread would be a good target; if the thread had been "I'm getting screwed on my car insurance" it might have made sense, or even if I'd made any reference to a car at all. Oh well; I deleted it and checked the box indicating that it was spam.
